Why IXAR

What the job actually involves.

Inspection work is technical, regulated and physical. These are the three things worth knowing before you decide whether it suits you.

01

Work that is checked

Every report carries a name. Personnel are certified to SNT-TC-1A or ISO 9712 and work to written procedures, which means the standard is external rather than a matter of opinion.

02

Qualification is paid for

IXAR has run its own training programme since 1969. Method progression and radiation safety qualification are routes the company funds, not something you arrange on your own time.

03

Regional, not desk-bound

Scopes run across Uganda and Tanzania and mobilise further. Field work is the job, with the shift patterns and site conditions that implies — worth knowing before you apply.
